Description

Subject Matter:

The interior of an inn.

Physical Description:

View of an interior of an inn, with tatami-matted rooms and sliding doors. The rooms have doors open. Men and women wearing yukata are resting in one of the rooms. The other room seems to be a public bathroom, with one man taking a bath in the deep soaking tubs, and the other sitting on the stool to put on his clothes.
